MBA
KNOWING. BEING. DOING.
Success isn’t just what you know or
being able to apply it. It’s also about your
individual ability to inspire and motivate
others. The University of Sydney MBA
is a general management degree that
has been specifically developed to equip
managers with the knowledge, skills and
attributes that they need to succeed in
an increasingly complex global business
environment, delivered in a purpose-
designed CBD campus location.
Designed in close consultation with
leading businesses and industry experts,
the University of Sydney MBA will
expose you to cutting-edge business
knowledge, give you practical experience
applying theory to real world commercial
challenges and provide you with access
to unique opportunities to develop. A key
feature of the University of Sydney MBA
is its focus on developing the personal
and professional skills of emerging
leaders and this is addressed in two core
units of study – Leadership Practice and
Development and Critical Analysis and
Thought Leadership.
Our partnership with Korn/Ferry
International, world leaders in executive
talent, will give you access to the same
leadership assessment tools that are
used to evaluate senior executives and
CEOs around the world, forming the
basis of a tailored program designed
to build individual leadership skills and
competencies that will help you to make
a difference.
The thought leadership program is
designed to further develop your critical
analytical skills and enhance your ability
to clearly articulate well-reasoned
opinions on key issues of relevance
to organisations and the broader
community. This unique offering brings
to life our commitment to an MBA which
is about developing your personal as well
as professional competencies.
